On the reaction day the stock moved 2.0 pts less than Nifty Microcap 250 and 1.5 pts less than its Other Textile Products peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Soma Textiles clarified to BSE that it disclosed the RBI compounding order promptly after settlement. The company paid a compounding fee of about Rs 55.2 lakh (one cheque of Rs 46 lakh plus two cheques of Rs 4.6 lakh each by directors) to RBI on May 29, 2024 for contravention of Foreign Exchange provisions. RBI acknowledged receipt on May 30, 2024, and the company intimated the stock exchange within 24 hours.
Matter already settled with RBI in May 2024 with penalty paid. Minor compliance clarification to the exchange, no ongoing risk.
